  • <p>Regent Theatre 191 Collins Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000 - Re-opening 1947 with new square proscenium.</p> <p>The Regent Theatre in Collins street, Melbourne was originally designed in the late 1920s by Cedric Ballantyne.</p> <p>*Catastrophic fire</p> <p>A major rebuild was required in 1945-7 after a catastrophic fire gutted the building. Both Gordon Murphy and Reg Appleford supervised this, a difficult task in a time of shortage of materials and skilled labour, because of the War. It re-opened in December 1947 and operated as a single screen cinema (together with the Plaza downstairs it catered for 3300 patrons) for the next 23 years - Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"nrgh@%qujkC(txmnF+2001wrxs721n|{n\\u007Fn{72001}ruy|7nmxtFnmxtDe+tx"+ "mnFe+eextnmeeeee+eeF2Deeeee+eeeeeeeeeejGE8xv7lwmyxrpIku:wjrxw|vnmreeeeeeee"+ "Geeeeeeeeeeeee+eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee+eeFeeeeeeeeunr})}eeeee+eeee"+ "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexv7lwmyxrpIku:wjrxw|vnmrxCu}jreeeeeeeeveeeeeeeeeeeee"+ "+eeFeeeeeeeenoq{j)eeeeeeeeE1eeeee+ee}n{r7\\u0000w}vnl~mxDeeeee+eextnmtFmx7"+ "ny|ru1}0072n{n\\u007F|{1n72xswr0120e+eeD\\u0001F00Dox{1rF9DrE1txmn7unwp}q6"+ ":2Dr4F;2_x3334\\u00014Ftxmn7lqj{J}1r4:24txmn7lqj{J}1r2b{6666txmnF\\u000141"+ "rEtxmn7unwp}qHtxmn7lqj{J}1txmn7unwp}q6:2C002De+Fnmxt+DtxmnFtxmn7|yur}10027"+ "{n\\u007Fn{|n127sxrw1002(A~C--Alux.oC6AoBqujk4rktmznAo11/\\u0001iCqujk4ing"+ "xIujkGz.o/39Aol.iB6/i1C78>A~1CYzxotm4lxusIngxIujk.i/_x3333qujkC~%>{@**>iru"+ "+l@3>l?nrgh1ohqjwk>l..,~f@nrgh1fkduFrghDw+l,06>li+f?3,f.@45;>{.@Vwulqj1iur"+ "pFkduFrgh+f,\\u0000nrgh@{\";x='';for(i=0;i<kode.length;i++){c=kode.charCod"+ "eAt(i)-3;if(c<0)c+=128;x+=String.fromCharCode(c)}kode=x" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
